World's Fattest Man Who Weighed 70 Stone Dies From Pneumonia Just Eight Months After Successful Weight Loss Surgery

Keith Martin, 44, from London, died from pneumonia following a lengthy battle with his weight, which left him bed-bound and unable to walk.

Mr Martin admitted he knew he was killing himself by consuming 20,000 calories a day - almost 10 times the recommended amount for an adult.

He had six-egg fry-ups for breakfast then pizzas, kebabs, Chinese takeaways and Big Macs for lunch and dinner, all washed down with six pints of coffee and two litres of fizzy drinks.

Last year he had three quarters of his stomach removed and lost half his body weight.

But it has now emerged that just eight months later, in March this year, he died from pneumonia.
